[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What qualifies as a high poverty school? My kid is at a 40 per cent farms school, and we haven’t had the level of issues discussed here. Some disruption, sure, but overall my kid is pretty happy and seems to be learning a lot. I quite like the teachers we’ve had so far and have been pretty impressed with how well they seem to know the kids and how much they care about them. We are early elementary and here in close in DMV. This thread has me worried that I’m missing something….[/quote] NP I don't think they should let the number go above 30. And poverty rates aren't all the same and won't affect the school the same. Some kids have wonderful family support but don't speak English and the kid doesn't speak English, whereas other students could be homeless. [/quote]
